PAPEETE

Labrador Retriever · Female · Adult · 6 years

Papeete est arrivée au refuge à la suite d'une saisie judiciaire dans un élevage intensif. Utilisée comme reproductrice, Papeete n'a malheureusement jamais connu la vie de famille. Malgré un début de vie difficile et un total manque de socialisation, Papeete est une chienne câline et très proche de l'humain. Cette adorable louloutte est une labrador dans toute sa splendeur ! Gourmande, énergique et très rigolote. Elle aura besoin d'humains présents et patients, capables de l'accompagner dans son éducation car elle a tout à apprendre : solitude, vie en foyer, propreté, découverte de nouveaux environnements... Elle pourra vivre avec des grands enfants respectueux, en appartement ou maison, en environnement rural ou semi-urbain. Papeete est sociable avec ses congénères et elle pourra vivre avec un compagnon canin bien dans ses pattes, sous condition de bonnes présentations au refuge.

About PAPEETE

What life with PAPEETE looks like

PAPEETE is a adult labrador retriever dog waiting at SPA Hermeray in Hermeray.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇫🇷Adopting from France

French refuges follow the SPA framework: adopters sign a cession contract that includes sterilization, vaccinations, microchip identification, and rabies passport. Fees are typically €150–€300. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting PAPEETE, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about PAPEETE?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. SPA Hermeray handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw PAPEETE on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt PAPEETE if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — SPA Hermeray will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is PAPEETE already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if PAPEETE isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with SPA Hermeray early rather than rehoming privately; they know PAPEETE and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (FR). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
